No one was injured when a car plunged into the sea near the old fish market in Valletta this afternoon.

A diver went down to the car to check if anyone was inside and confirmed that the car was empty.

It is not yet known how the car fell into the sea.

The car is being pulled out of the water later today.

The police, the Armed Forces of Malta and the Civil Protection Department are taking part in the operation.
